Depends. How bad is the pain you are expeirencing?
Is it getting worst each day? How many surgeries
have you had? Scar tissue developes the minute you
are close with sutures. It can bind your internal
organs together depending on how many surgeries
you have had. Also there are no medical tests to
show scar tissue unless you find a surgeon who is
willing to do a lap to look inside and see how much
scar tissue has develope and to what extent the scar
tissue damage has caused.
Alot of patients do expeirence pain after a few
weeks of post op because of scar tissue
developing and binding your organs together.
Unfortunately there is no known cure at the moment.
There are no medical tests that can be done to spot
this. Only true way to know is by doing a laparotomy
or laparoscopy to find out if this is truly the cause
of your pain. There is a website you can go to for
